(Depending on the font you use you may not have to click in each letter, if you use a script font, or one where the letters are connected together, you may only have to click the first letter, it depends on the font. But you want all the letters to have the little marching ants around them :-)

Once all your letters are selected, go to Effects, click Plugins, then click Eye Candy 5 Impact, then click Glass.

Again these are my personal settings, you can use them if you wish, or you can play around with the settings until you get the effect that you want :

Now open your Hearts 1 element - Copy & paste it as a new layer onto your canvas ,then re-size it to 40%. (To re-size an element, go to Image, & click on Re-size. Then the following window will open)

Then click Ok.

Now using your move tool, position your element to the left side of your canvas, go back to your layers pallet

& right click on your Hearts 1 layer, then click Duplicate. Position your duplicated element in the middle of your canvas.

Now go back to your layers pallet & right click on your duplicated Heart 1 element & click Duplicate , now position that element to the right on your canvas.

Now go back to your layers pallet & click on your Name layer.

Now open your CK5_4 element - Copy & paste it as a new layer, then re-size it to 40% (Remember the re-size directions above)

Then position your element to the left end of your name, you want it close to the beginning letter.

Go back to your layers pallet & right click on your CK5_4 layer, then click Duplicate.

Now go to Adjust, click Blur, then click Gaussian Blur, set to 5.00 & click Ok.

Now at the top of your layers pallet, change your Blend Mode to Overlay.

In your layers pallet, click on your original CK5_4 layer & apply a drop shadow. (Same as you used before.)

Now in your layers pallet, click on your top Hearts 1 layer-

Now open your Curly Ribbon 1 element - Copy & paste it as a new layer onto your canvas, then re-size it to 50%. Position it to the right of your name, then go to your layers pallet & right click on your Curly Ribbon 1 layer & click Duplicate. Then go to Image & click Mirror. Adjust the position of the duplicated Curly Ribbon if needed.

Apply a drop shadow to both Curly Ribbon elements.

Open your Bead Stuff 1 element - Copy & paste it as a new layer onto your canvas ,then re-size it to 50%. Position it to the left side of your canvas.

Go to Adjust, click Sharpness then click Sharpen.

Apply a drop shadow. (Same as you have used with your other elements.)

Now use your move tool to position the duplicated barbed wire elements to the right side of your name.

Open your Dangling Heart 1 element - Copy & paste it as a new layer onto your canvas ,then re-size it to 20%. Now position it to the top right of your Beads Stuff 1 element.

Sharpen & apply a drop shadow.

Go to your layers pallet & right click on your Bow2 layer, then click Duplicate. Position your duplicated Bow2 element to the top of the ring on your Dangling Heart 1 element.

Open your Fuzzy Heart 2 element - Copy & paste it as a new layer onto your canvas ,then re-size it to 10%. Then re-size it again to 80%.

Position to your liking.

Sharpen & apply a drop shadow.

Now duplicate this element a few times & place around your siggy to your liking.

Open your Broken Heart 1 element - Copy & Paste it as a new layer onto your canvas ,then re-size it to 10%. Then re-size it again to 80%.

Go to Image, click Free Rotate, set to Left 20.00 & click Ok.

Position to your liking.

Sharpen & apply a drop shadow.

Duplicate this element a couple of times & position them to your liking.

Now if you have one, activate your Sparkle tube, make a new raster layer, then left click on your canvas where you would like to place your sparkles.

Now you will want to add any copyright & or credit information.

Then if you are happy with the placement of all your elements & text, go to your layers pallet, right click on any layer & click Merge, then from the slide out menu click Merge Visible.

Now activate your crop tool & crop off any access canvas that we did not use.

Then once you have cropped your canvas ,you may want to re-size your siggy. Remember that when re-sizing the completed merged siggy that you make sure you are set to Pixels, and that re-size all layers box is checked.

After you re-size , go to Adjust, click Sharpness, then click Sharpen, to give your siggy one last finishing touch. :-)

All that is left now is to save your siggy in PNG format & you have completed this tutorial !! ♥
